A very light italic slab serif with crisp, unbracketed serifs and a clean, even rhythm. Strokes are slender with restrained contrast, letting the sharp slab ends do most of the defining. The italic is moderately slanted and feels drawn rather than mechanically obliqued, with smooth, open curves in letters like C, O, and Q and compact joins throughout. Lowercase forms show a traditional italic construction (single-storey a and g), with small, precise details such as ball-like terminals on some letters and a straightforward, legible numeral set.
Well-suited to editorial typography such as magazines, essays, pull quotes, and refined branding copy where an italic voice is needed without becoming ornamental. It can also work for captions and supporting text in print or digital layouts that benefit from a crisp, slightly old-style italic serif texture.
The overall tone is bookish and cultured, combining a gentle calligraphic lean with the firmness of slab serifs. It reads as classic and editorial, with a quiet elegance that suggests notes, essays, and long-form reading rather than loud display.
The design appears intended to provide a readable, graceful italic with distinctive slab serifs—balancing softness in curves with firm, squared finishing strokes for a composed, literary feel.
The letterforms maintain consistent spacing and a tidy baseline, producing a disciplined texture in paragraphs. Capitals stay relatively narrow and upright in presence despite the slant, while the lowercase carries most of the italic character through its entry/exit strokes and terminals.
